Hello and welcome to “Life Upclose”, your weekly show where we discuss people, lifestyles and China’s ever-changing society. I’m Yao Yongmei in Beijing.

It’s that time of year again: China’s top legislature, the National People’s Congress, or NPC, and top advisory body, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, or CPPCC, are holding their annual meetings in Beijing.
Lawmakers and top political advisors are gathering in the Chinese capital for the annual two sessions, better known as “Liang3hui4” to discuss the country’s various social and economic policies.
So, on this edition of “Life Upclose”, let’s take a look at some of the hottest issues discussed at this year’s “Lianghui”; We will also meet a NPC deputy who is attending the annual session of the top legislative body for the 12th consecutive year.
